Observations with KIDs Interferometer Spectrum Survey… (2022)
“ We exploited Jupiter to calibrate our detector response in an astrophysical signal and obtain the first scientific result, as shown in Fig. 2. We measure the brightness temperature of Venus at a frequency that has not been measured before. We obtain a brightness temperature KISS of at 150 GHz (the central frequency of the 120–180 GHz KISS band and the incertitude represents the 1-sigma level of confidence) . We also show the “Bellotti” model [14] as a solid blue line for the Venus brightness temperature and its extrapolation of a simple power-law as a dashed line at mm wavelengths. ”
